When the code is that small please just put it in the body of your post.
Save pastebin for (IMHO) anything over say 60 lines.
1.
password = "qwerty"
2.
guess = "0"
3.
count = 0
4.
while count != 3:
5.
guess = raw_input("Enter your password: ")
6.
guess = str(guess)
7.
if guess != password
8.
print "Access Denied"
9.
count = count + 1
10.
else:
11.
print "Password Confirmed"
2 ways - either
1.
while count != 3 and guess != password:
or
11. print "Password Confirmed"
12. break
